    Hi Chris,

    Thank you for the reassurance. I did some research and it seems kyphoplasty is vey similar to the procedure Mum had today so it’s nice to hear from someone who has  had a positive outcome.

    The operation went well today and 5 vertebrae were treated. We initially thought only 2 were being done but turns out more was required. Now we wait to see what the pain relief is like.

    I hope your treatment and maintenance continues to go well. Thanks again for the nice message and reassurance.

    Best wishes,

    Molly

    <p style=”text-align: left;”>Hi again Peter,</p>
    <p style=”text-align: left;”>Thanks for the advice. We will have a look at all the information. My Dad has managed to get a bit of advice off the nurse assigned to my Mum today and we’re hoping for some more tomorrow from the consultant.</p>
    <p style=”text-align: left;”>It’s tough to get your head around all the types and treatment but so far the information we’ve had has been useful. We will continue to seek out information and do the best we can.</p>

    Hi Peter,

    Thanks for your message. I’m sorry to hear of your diagnosis but it’s good to know you’re doing well after your treatment.

    I don’t actually know what type of MM it is but I’ll see if I can find out. The pain is in her back, she’s in tramadol and morphene which I think helps to manage it but she still feels it. She’s struggling to get enough fluids because of being sick and she went to a&e last week for a saline drip. Hopefully on Tuesday her consultant can give her something to help but we’ll wait and see.

    The organiser sounds like a good idea. I’ll look into that.

    Thanks again for your message.

    Thank you for your reply. This is somewhat reassuring as we have thought it was due to Mum not being used to the drugs etc. We will speak to the consultant next week and see what they say. Thank you again.
